I was yelling at the TV when he went off the rails, again.
OMG, he just goes off without any thought of how he could effect people.
Networks will need to have a Chyron WARNING showing when he's speaking, just in case.
Maker of Lysol and Dettol says people should not administer disinfectant into the human body
LONDON — Britons woke on Friday to find many essential household cleaning products trending on Twitter, including Dettol, Zoflora, Cillit Bang and Toilet Duck. The reason? President Trump, in his Thursday coronavirus press briefing, had pondered whether injecting disinfectant could be used to fight the deadly virus.
“I see the disinfectant that knocks it out in a minute, one minute,” Trump said. “And is there a way we can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning? Because you see it gets inside the lungs and it does a tremendous number on the lungs, so it would be interesting to check that.”
On Friday, the maker of Lysol and Dettol said that due to “recent speculation” and “social media activity” they wanted to urge people not to ingest disinfectant.
“We must be clear that under no circumstance should our disinfectant products be administered into the human body (through injection, ingestion or any other route),” the Reckitt Benckiser Group said in an email to The Washington Post. “With all products, our disinfectant and hygiene products should only be used as intended and in line with usage guidelines. Please read the label and safety information.”
Many around the world reacted with shock at Trump’s remarks, including Labour lawmaker David Lammy, who tweeted: “The President of the United States of America suggesting injecting disinfectant into people’s bodies. The world deserves better leaders than this.”
On British television program “Good Morning Britain,” Trump’s remarks were widely discussed, with presenter Hilary Jones, who is also a medical doctor, telling hosts and viewers: “I’ve heard some crazy things in my life but this is probably one of the craziest.” He added that Trump’s mulling of the idea was “really worrying.” Jones said that to use disinfectant as an injection to combat the virus was “toxic and highly poisonous” and would do “no good whatsoever.”
